According to CNN, an Iranian source stated that Iran still has a deep mistrust of the United States and does not understand why the US suspended talks during the last Pakistan negotiations. It is still unclear whether Iran's latest proposal is sufficient to bring both sides back to the negotiating table. The source added that Tehran could consider resuming talks if the US lifts the blockade on Iranian ports and Iran fully reopens the Strait of Hormuz. The US has made it clear that Iran must unconditionally allow all vessels to pass through the strait, but it has not been confirmed whether Iran's latest proposal includes such a concession.
